——Comprehensive Reference for Recycled Polyphenylene Sulfide Applications, Grades, Performance, and Colors (Including Quotation Sample Data as of 2026-09-11)

1 Overview

1.1 What is Recycled PPS

PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide) is a type of semi-crystalline specialty engineering plastic. Industrially, it is mostly produced via the Macallum method by polymerizing p-dichlorobenzene with sodium sulfide in NMP solvent (FDA 21 CFR 177.2490 clearly defines the food contact applications of PPS resin). Pure PPS has a melting point of about 280°C and a density of 1.34–1.36 g/cm³, while GF40 reinforced grade has a density of about 1.63–1.66 g/cm³; the long-term use temperature is 200–240°C, and the heat deflection temperature under 1.82 MPa is 260–280°C. PPS has inherent flame retardancy and can pass UL94 V-0 at a wall thickness of 0.4mm without adding flame retardants. Below 200°C, it is almost insoluble in common organic solvents and is resistant to corrosion by inorganic acids, bases, and salts.

Recycled PPS (rPPS) can be divided into two types based on the material source: PIR (Post-Industrial Recycling) comes from injection molding sprues, runners, gates, and production rejects; PCR/industrial sources come from automotive electronics disassembly (sensors, connectors, thermal management components), electronic and electrical disassembly (relays, coil skeletons, connectors), industrial pump and valve linings, as well as PPS fiber dust filter bags. The typical recycling process is: crushing (3–10mm) → sorting/cleaning → vacuum devolatilization → melt filtration (filter ≤25μm) → 270–320°C single/double screw granulation → modification and blending.

The industry-standard blending ratio shows that when recycled material is added at 10–25%, there is no significant loss in mechanical performance; BASF's official recommendation for DURAFIDE is that the recycled material ratio should not exceed 25%, and for some grades, it can be relaxed to 50%. Using 100% recycled material will cause a decrease in mechanical and heat resistance performance due to glass fiber breakage and a reduction in molecular weight, accompanied by noticeable discoloration.

1.2 Core Values

Cost side: The mainstream transaction price of recycled PPS is about 11,500–43,000 yuan/ton, while that of virgin modified PPS is about 38,000–60,000 yuan/ton, with recycled material being approximately 30–50% cheaper than virgin material. Environmental side: Referring to mechanical recycling standards of benchmark companies like Teijin, GHG emissions can be reduced by about 60–70% (industry benchmark value, specific LCA data for PPS is to be added); due to the NMP solvent route, high-temperature dehydration polycondensation, and energy consumption in solvent recovery, virgin PPS has relatively high energy use, making the potential for emission reduction through recycling comparatively prominent among engineering plastics.

Policy side: The "Action Plan for the Promotion of Recycled Materials" issued by seven departments including the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC Huanzi [2025] No. 1681, 2025-12-23) is China's first policy document specifically deploying the promotion of recycled material applications. It clearly states that automotive interior and exterior parts will take the lead in large-scale use of recycled plastics, and non-movement/structural parts of electrical and electronic products will increase the use of recycled plastics. The "Environmental Code of the People's Republic of China" came into effect on 2026-08-15, and waste plastics were included in national law for the first time, being defined as recyclable resources. Although PPS has not yet been specifically mentioned in supporting ratio provisions, its applications in high-value scenarios such as automotive thermal management and electronic connectors strongly follow policy directions.

2 Application Areas and Specific Products

According to publicly available industry reports, the downstream application structure of PPS is approximately 38.6% for automobiles, 29.1% for electronic connectors, and 32.3% for industrial pumps and valves (according to Douyin reports, to be verified). The table below classifies them into four major segments: automotive, electronics/electrical/communications, industrial machinery/chemical equipment, and environmental filtration & others, and highlights the core material selection characteristics of each segment.

2.1 Car

The automotive sector is a leading downstream segment in PPS global sales (according to some foreign manufacturers, it accounts for about 45%). The core material requirements are: long-term heat resistance up to 220°C, low dielectric loss, dimensional stability, resistance to antifreeze/fuel, and intrinsic UL94 V-0 flame retardancy; the new energy high-voltage platform imposes higher requirements on the CTI and flame retardancy of 800V/1000V connectors.

2.3 Industrial Machinery/Chemical Equipment

The core material selection requirements for the industrial machinery and chemical equipment sector are: wear resistance, self-lubrication, chemical corrosion resistance, and continuous use at 220°C; wear-resistant grades are often compounded with PTFE/carbon fiber/graphite, conductive/antistatic grades are often compounded with carbon fiber (CF30), and recycled materials in this sector have low appearance requirements, are cost-sensitive, and are relatively well-accepted.

3 Industry Classification System

Current Status of National Standards: The GB/T 40006 series has been released, including Part 1 General Rules, Part 2 PE, Part 3 PP, Part 5 ABS, Part 6 PS, Part 10 PBT, Part 11 PVC, and Part 13 PPE. As of September 2026, there is no specific part for PPS in this series, and recycled PPS currently follows the general framework of GB/T 40006.1-2021 "General Rules." The national standard for naming virgin PPS is still under development (under the jurisdiction of TC15/SC9, drafted by Zhonglan Chenguang) and is still in the planning stage. Color codes continue to follow the general system of GB/T 40006.1 (B Black / G Gray / N Natural / X Mixed).

Industry-standard classification mainly unfolds across five dimensions: by glass fiber content, by processing purpose, by modification direction, by purity grade, and by grade system. See Table 5 for details.

4 Performance Indicators

4.1 Comparison of Native and Regenerated

The typical properties of virgin PPS/GF40 are shown in Table 6; recycled PPS experiences a reduction in the average fiber length and molecular weight during crushing and remelting, resulting in a decrease of about 15–30% in tensile and flexural strength compared to virgin material. However, the melting point, flame retardant rating, and chemical resistance are mainly determined by the molecular chain structure and are well retained.

The typical values of regenerated GF-reinforced PPS compared with virgin material are shown in Table 7. According to the Douyin report, the typical PPS recycled material has an MFI of about 50–200 g/10min at 260°C, tensile strength of 80–120 MPa, flexural modulus of 3.5–4.2 GPa, and HDT stable above 260°C (according to the report, to be verified).

4.2 Classification by Glass Fiber Content and Use

The glass fiber content determines rigidity, heat resistance, and cost; the intended processing application determines the requirements for fluidity and melt strength. When grading recycled PPS, both dimensions need to be considered simultaneously, as detailed in Table 8.

Table 8 Classification of Recycled PPS by Glass Fiber Content and Application

5 Color System

The color of regenerated PPS directly determines its price and positioning. Multiple heat histories (reprocessing at 290–320°C) will change the natural color → yellow → brown → dark brown/black, with thermal-oxidative degradation naturally forming darker colors; dark-colored material can mask impurities and color deviations, while light-colored high-grade material requires the use of natural white PIR sprue material and strict control of heat history, and its price can be 2–3 times that of black material.

Why recycled PPS is mostly dark: ① High processing temperatures (290–320℃) and multiple thermal histories lead to thermo-oxidative degradation, causing the color to evolve from the natural color → yellow → brown → dark brown/black; ② 100% recycled material can easily cause discoloration (according to Borealis official statement); ③ Dark-colored matrices can mask impurities and color deviations, reducing sorting costs. Therefore, off-white, titanium white, bright red/rust red, and other light or highly saturated colors are considered high-end custom colors, requiring clean PIR sources and strict process control.

6 Market and Trend Overview

6.1 Production Capacity and Price Pattern

Virgin PPS production capacity pattern (for comparison): NHU's annual PPS production capacity is about 22,000 tons, ranking among the top in the domestic market and third globally (Toray about 33,600 tons, DIC about 23,000 tons). In 2024, it will operate at full production and sales, and it is one of the few domestic manufacturers covering all four levels: fiber/injection molding/extrusion/coating. Other major virgin PPS manufacturers include Chevron Phillips Ryton (Solvay), Polyplastics DURAFIDE (DIC), Toray Torelina, Celanese Fortron, and Sichuan Deyang, etc.

Price range (2025–2026): Virgin PPS imported modified GF40 is about 38,000 RMB/ton (e.g., Toray A310MB7); domestically produced modified black is about 18,000 RMB/ton, natural color is above 30,000 RMB/ton; recycled PPS flakes (purity ≥95%) are about 25,000–40,000 RMB/ton. Based on the first-hand quotation sheet on 2026-09-11, the mainstream transaction range for recycled PPS is about 11,500–43,000 RMB/ton, approximately 30–50% lower than virgin PPS.

6.3 Application Structure, Region, and Policy

Application structure: According to publicly available industry reports, the downstream of PPS is approximately 38.6% in automobiles, 29.1% in electronic connectors, and 32.3% in industrial pumps and valves (according to the Docin report, to be verified).

Regional distribution: Native PPS production capacity is concentrated in Zhejiang (Xinhoucheng, Shaoxing) and Sichuan (Deyang); recycled/modified production capacity is concentrated in the Yangtze River Delta (Zhejiang, Suzhou) and the Pearl River Delta (Dongguan, Zhongshan, Foshan). There is no authoritative public data on domestic recycled PPS production, but it is qualitatively judged to be a niche high-value recycled variety, with a scale far smaller than rPET/rPP/rABS, and the waste material sources are fragmented with small batch sizes.

Policies and Regulations: In China, the "Action Plan for the Promotion of Recycled Material Applications" (NDRC Environment and Resources [2025] No. 1681, joint issuance by seven departments on 2025-12-23) is the first policy document specifically deploying the promotion of recycled material applications. The "Codification of Environmental Law" will come into effect on 2026-08-15, marking the first inclusion of waste plastics into the law. In supporting regulations, starting from July 2026, recycled PP/ABS in major home appliances is required to be ≥12%, and recycled ABS/PETG in structural parts of new energy vehicles is required to be ≥8% (according to Dou Ding's figures, pending verification). PPS has not yet been mentioned in specific proportion clauses.

On the EU side, the ELV framework requires recycled materials to be ≥15% by 2032 and ≥25% by 2036; BMW's 2025 procurement policy requires exterior plastic PCR ≥30% and supporting ISCC PLUS certification; Mercedes-Benz's Ambition 2039 target aims for 100% recyclability of new cars by 2030. Recycled PPS exported to the EU must also comply with WEEE, RoHS 3.0, and REACH SVHC screening; PPS itself has no prohibited issues, but recycled sources must pass SVHC screening.

In Japan, the 'Resource Effective Utilization Promotion Law' promotes the recycling of container packaging and home appliances; Toray has launched PPS chemical recycling technology, with mechanical strength close to virgin material; PPS is positioned in Japan as a quasi-valuable engineering plastic, encouraging closed-loop recycling.

Emission Reduction Data: The carbon footprint of virgin PPS is approximately 4.8 tons of CO₂e per ton of finished product according to DouDing standards (compared to about 9.2 tons for PTFE, to be verified according to report standards). Teijin's mechanical recycling claims a non-reinforced GHG reduction of about 70% and a reinforced GHG reduction of about 60% (Teijin's own standards, not PPS-specific, for general engineering plastics as a benchmark in the industry). When quoting, it is recommended to state: according to Teijin and other benchmark mechanical recycling standards, GHG reduction is about 60–70% (industry benchmark value, to be verified by PPS-specific LCA).

6.4 Southeast Asia Import Channels and Material Source Background

Policy and Trade Background: After China's 2017 ban on waste, the procurement and production capacity of recycled pellets shifted to Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Under the RCEP framework, over 90% of plastic products achieve zero tariffs, and more than 90% of products traded between ASEAN and China enjoy zero tariffs with a certificate of origin. Thailand will completely ban the import of waste plastics from 2025, forcing local recycling production lines to upgrade; Vietnam and Malaysia have become the main destinations for Chinese-invested recycled/modified production capacity.

Chinese Overseas Investment Pattern: In Vietnam, Yingke Recycling built a base in Thanh Hoa in 2019 and launched the second phase in 2025, with many Chinese-funded modification/recycling plants setting up factories; in Malaysia, Kingfa Technology established a Malaysian subsidiary, leveraging ASEAN tariffs to reach the automotive/home appliance/electronics markets, while also serving as a buffer and transit function for China-US trade. Shandong companies have 100,000 tons/year of recycled PS/PET particle production capacity in Malaysia; in Thailand, the Thailand 4.0 strategy encourages foreign investment in automotive electrification and recycling equipment; in Indonesia and the Philippines, the focus is mainly on low- to mid-end recycling and initial processing.

Regarding the meaning of recycled PPS: Currently, there is no public data on large-scale direct imports of recycled PPS from Southeast Asia; a more realistic channel is that Chinese modification manufacturers set up plants in Southeast Asia and then sell the recycled modified pellets back to China, enjoying zero tariffs under RCEP. At present, Southeast Asian channels mainly handle rPS/rPET/general engineering plastic recycled materials. The sources of specialty PPS recycled materials in Southeast Asia are mainly described qualitatively, and specific scale numbers should not be provided when quoting.
